Busta Rhymes Arrested Again
Busta Rhymes was charged with driving with a suspended license after police stopped him for running a red light, authorities said.
Rhymes was taken into custody in lower Manhattan around 5:30 a.m. The rapper was in court on Thursday night.
A suspended-license charge, punishable by up to 15 days in jail if convicted, is the least of the current legal woes for the rapper, whose real name is Trevor Smith. He is accused of assault in two cases and was considering a plea deal that would let him plead guilty to misdemeanor assault and avoid jail.
Rhymes is accused of beating Edward Hatchett, his former driver, during a dispute over back pay last December. Rhymes is also charged with assaulting a fan for spitting on his car after an August performance on Randalls Island.
Police also have tried to question Rhymes as a potential witness last year's shooting death of his bodyguard Israel Ramirez but say Rhymes has refused to cooperate.
He must have a new album dropping, aye?
